I'm getting the same guys, and like others said, I can spoof a different country on my VPN and it works.
PlusNet here.
Also, someone here mentioned Cloudflare. Does anyone know how to get rid or any workaround? In the browser's status bar, I occasionally see "waiting for Cloudflare", also waiting for ajax.googleapis.com, and waiting for maxcdn.bootstrap.com. Then the site times out.
Multiple browsers, devices. VPN sometimes gets around the issue but not always. Cloudflare, Googleapis and Maxcdn all seem to be recent things. The internet was better / more responsive when these weren't around. 5+ years ago.
